Household Product Toxins Can Reduce Mental Capacity
Here’s Proof That Safer Products Can Produce a Better Quality of Life
Background
A 69-year-old male with, severe memory impairment, and profound fatigue he had been treated with lithium for 25 years, as well as with antidepressants and mood stabilizers for what was believed to be bipolar illness.
Health Problem
Over the last five years, the patient displayed increasing cognitive decline, with escalating memory impairment and social isolation. He had become increasingly dependent on his family for care and support. With the belief that he suffered from irreversible dementia, discussion ensued between family and caregivers about potential placement in an extended care facility for the remainder of his life.
Tested for Toxins
His family was referred to a toxicity clinic that conducted tests revealing he had an accumulation of certain toxic ingredients, one of which was lead. Studies show that 61 percent of hundreds of lipsticks contained lead, including L’Oreal, Cover Girl and even a $24 tube of Dior Addict. Learning the results, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration promised it would conduct an investigation, but it has dragged its feet.
Treatment
Therapies began to diminish the body burden of this toxic metal. The patient and his spouse were educated to make changes in their lives to preclude ongoing exposure to various potential toxicants.
Results
Within six months, the patient noticed considerable improvement in memory and mood. Within one year of treatment, friends and family concluded he had made a dramatic recovery and observed a restoration of his distinctive sense of humor. Six years after his initial visit for environmental health assessment, the patient continues to feel well, now living independently with his spouse and enjoying a good quality of life.
